Mcintosh

I have an chance to purchase a MC 2105 amp, MX 112 tuner/preamp, MQ 101 equalizer and ML 1C speakers. What is a good price and what do you think of this particular Mcintosh equipment?

What is the guy asking?

Sam, She is asking me to make an offer. Audiogon puts the price for everything at about $1,650. More than I would be willing to pay.

McIntosh isnt cheap; $1500 for everything sounds fair to both parties.

Here's what I would figure off the top of my head. 800 for the amp, 300 for the Tuner-pre, 200 for the eq, 200 for the speaks. Its not a "score" but both of you would get a very fair deal.

Welllllll offer what you can afford to pay based on the info gained from the follow up posters. It's not like you want to lo-ball to flip the gear, is it?
You never know until you ask and what do you have to lose?????? Hmmmmmmmmmmm?????

I never like making an offer. I always make the seller give me a price and go from there.

Yup, I'm the same that way.

Me either, but it sounds like a woman selling components that were or are her husband's or her's and she has no idea of what to ask. In that case I would just say $750 and go from there. LOL It's awkward at best, but there is a reason she isn't mentioning a price. It's one of those things that you would kick yourself when you find out they went for $800 to someone else.

I got my K-horns based on what I could afford, not the value. It just so happened that the seller was tired of entertaining offers based on him shipping them. I was local and probably way under his offers, but I could pick them up and place cash in hand. Convenience is priceless sometimes.
